How reflective tape works?

Reflective tape is a product that uses glass beads or artificial prisms to reflect light back to the light source, and no matter where the light source is, the reflective tape can reflect light back. The glass bead reflective tape is like a satellite radar, and the micro prism reflective tape is like a squash court. The reflective tape of the micro prism structure can be seen from far away.

The glass bead reflective tape has a reflective efficiency of about 30%, and the reflective angle is relatively large. It's okay for short-distance application scenarios, but not so good for long-distance applications. This kind of reflective mode is similar to a floodlight, which is bright near but not bright enough in the distance. The reflective efficiency of microprism reflective tape is higher, about 80%, and it can reflect the light back to a more concentrated area. This pattern of reflected light is much like a spotlight, the beam of light can be kept close and gathered together over a long distance.

The last thing to remember is that the more concentrated the beam, the more your eyes need to be aligned with the light source, so that when the light is reflected back, you can see it. The headlights of the car and the eyes of the driver are in such a parallel state, which is why the driver and passengers can see the illuminated street signs, but the pedestrians on the side of the road cannot. Kunshan Yuhuan Package Materials Co., Ltd. has advanced processing machines and mature testing procedures, and can provide a large number of high-quality reflective tapes.
